Russia “will pay a high price if it uses chemical weapons” in its war once morest Ukraine, the President of the United States said during a speech at the White House. He declined to discuss any information that US intelligence has on the matter.
Westerners are worried regarding the possible use of chemical weapons by Moscow in Ukraine. For its part, Russia accuses Washington and Kiev of managing laboratories intended to produce biological weapons in the country, which has been denied by the two capitals. The Americans say they suspect the Russians of spreading “lies” to “accuse others of what they plan to do themselves”.
“We are going to make sure that Ukraine has the weapons to defend itself once morest the Russian invader”, also hammered Joe Biden, while Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, relayed by many elected members of the American Congress, deplore that Washington refuses the delivery of Polish combat aircraft to Kiev.
The American president argued that the United States had already provided anti-tank weapons and defense systems capable of shooting down planes and helicopters. “A direct confrontation between NATO and Russia would be World War III, and that is something we must avoid at all costs,” he said.
“We are not going to fight a war once morest Russia in Ukraine,” he said once more. “But we already know that Putin’s war once morest Ukraine will never be a victory” for the Russian president, he added. Joe Biden has also pledged to “welcome Ukrainian refugees” to the United States “with open arms”, without further details.
